Making an Equestrian Family

William was laying on the couch and reading a book when Belle got home.

“Hi, honey,” she greeted him. She stopped at the entry to clean off her hooves.

He asked, “Anything exciting happen at the flower shop?”

He got up and welcomed her with a lingering kiss and a quick neck rub. Belle leaned in to the kiss, and nuzzled her head into his chest as he continued massaging.

“Nothing out of the usual. We're busy getting flowers set up in the greenhouse. Roseluck thinks it's going to be a great year for poinsettias, so the two of us are busy with that. She also has this idea that people will rent space in the greenhouse to get an early start on planting next year, so we're going to add an extension in the back yard.”

“Early start, huh? I'll have to mention that to Fizz. He might want to get his hops in the ground before Winter Wrap Up,” William replied.

They moved to the couch, and Belle lay her head in William's lap. She asked, “How did it go at Rarity's? Did she get you fixed up with a high-collared coat and matching large hat?”

William looked down at her and noticed the cheeky grin she was giving him. “It's the brightest purple. I was going for something more gray, but she convinced me purple would match your coat color. It has a white fur-lined collar, and she did convince me to get a big hat. And a cane, too. I'll look quite dapper.”

Belle scrunched up her face and looked him in the eye, unsure whether or not to believe that her normally conservative man would really dress that way. “You're not serious, are you?” He grinned, and she poked him with a hoof. “Psh...Silly. But I'm sure that you will look good in it.”

William laughed and brought up her hoof to kiss it. “It's normal; no worries. But I wanted to talk about our Hearth's Warming plans. I want to meet your family. What say we go to Hoofington and spend the holiday with your mom and sisters?”

Belle looked away and chewed her lip for as she considered the idea. Her mother knew that she was dating someone, and that they were living together now. But she hadn't quite told her that William was not a pony. She wasn't sure how her mother would take to that idea. Her sisters would probably be OK with it; they'd be happy she was serious with somepony in general.

“If you don't want to, we don't have to.” William had noticed her pause. “We could celebrate our first anniversary here. It's fine.”

Belle quickly replied, “It's not that I don't want to.” She sat up and put a hoof on his hand. “I really want you to meet my family. It's just that...well...I haven't told them that you're a human. I think they know that you exist, because of all the news when you first got here.” She thought for a little more, and finally smiled. “Yes. Let's go. I'll write mom tonight and let her know we're coming.”

Belle got up and sat in William's lap, one leg on each side of him, and brought him to a close hug. “They're going to love you as much as I do.”

She began kissing his neck and ear before moving on to his face and finally his lips. William responded, his tongue meeting hers and exploring inside her mouth. He supported her back with one hand, and began tracing her spine with the other hand, finally reaching her decidedly non-earth pony cutie mark of three stars. They matched her eyes exactly.

He broke off the kiss to ask a question. “We're meeting Starshine and Glory for dinner at 7:30, right?” His hand continued to massage the area of her mark.

She looked at him with half-lidded eyes, her pupils dilated. “Yeah. We have some time before then.”

He hugged her tight and stood up quickly, eliciting a surprised “Eep!” from his mare. Days spent lifting various casks and pots were good for strengthening leg muscles. She giggled the whole way down the hall, and broke into full laughter as he playfully tossed her onto their bed. He took off his shirt and flexed his muscles in a show of machismo.

“My beastly man! You and your hands, and sharp teeth! Who are you to ponyhandle a lady?”

William thought she really enjoyed playing the part of a damsel in distress.

“I'll show you,” he intoned in a passable impression of Tirek. “The crazy earth man is here to eat ponies.” William tickled her on her sensitive belly, and underneath her forelegs. He dived in and began kissing all around her face, lingering on her mouth and enjoying the taste. As the kissing continued, playful tickles changed into longer caresses. Belle's laughter quieted, and she teased him some more by moving her head in an attempt to dodge his kisses.

“No, you won't get me! I don't submit.”

“We'll see about that. I have my ways, lady pony,” William said as he began to kiss his way down her chest, towards her tail. His hands stroked the thinner hair and delicate skin inside her rear legs, and he focused his kisses for on her teats. He sucked one, grazing it with his teeth, before releasing it and lightly blowing on the now-aroused nipple. She brushed his dark brown hair with a hoof and moaned softly.

William continued to focus his mouth on her deliciously sensitive nipples, and used his hands to work on the growing fullness of her mound. He used the fingers of one hand to spread her folds open and allow the other hand to explore the area of her love-button. He took a pause from ministering to her teats and licked two fingers, which he then put to use gently circling her ever-growing clitoris.

Belle continued to give encouragement with her moans and groans, and the occasional, “Yes, ohh, William, that feels so good.” She looked down at him, both enjoying the sensation of his tongue and fingers working their magic, and longing for the time when he would be free to kiss her with his sure to be wet face. She felt his fingers enter her, and it was another reminder of how different and special William was. While she had been with stallions before William, none were able to please her in the ways this human could. The unicorn had better techniques when using his magic, but he hadn't loved her the way William did. As she was reflecting on that, one finger found the spot just inside her canal that triggered intense pleasure. “Ohhh, yes, right there William.” Her hips gave an involuntary buck of pleasure, but William kept going. Her moan broke into a short giggle as she remembered the first time that happened. He hadn't quite expected it, and had to explain a hoof-shaped black eye at work the next day.

He took a break from her nethers and came up to kiss her smiling face, but kept two fingers working within her. She took his face in both hooves and kissed him on the mouth, her eyes open to look into his.

“If this is what happens when you capture unsuspecting prey, I'll let...ohhh...you get me every day.” She was getting short of breath with his continued manipulations. She felt very wet now, and could sense juices running from her slit to the dock of her tail.

“I'll hold you to that.” William gave her a peck on the nose, and disappeared south again.

When he got there, his tongue augmented the finger play in a way that was especially pleasurable. He worked circles around her now engorged bud with his wet tongue, then slipped it inside her and danced from her opening back to her clit. He varied pressure on her, at one moment making his tongue wide and soft to stroke large areas, then focusing on other pleasure centers with harder, narrow flicks. She both felt and heard his low-pitched moan; he seemingly fed off of her growing arousal. As he put his lips around her button and continued to work his fingers inside her, Belle felt the wave coming. It began to build in between her rear legs, but quickly spread to her belly and down her legs, leaving little explosions of joy along the way.

“William, yes, oh yes! Don't stop!” Belle implored. The wave continued over her whole being, and as it reached her head, she brought her hooves up to her face and quickly ran them down her body, finally grasping William's hair.

“Ohhh, ohh my man. Fuck me. William, now. I want your dick inside me.” Belle tugged on his head to bring his body up.

William quickly took off his pants and underwear, and Belle marveled at the now free and definitely erect cock that promised to soon be inside her.

He positioned himself on top of her and kissed her again, exploring her mouth and muzzle from one side to the other. She looked into his brown eyes and felt him teasing around the outside of her pussy, getting his rod wet before plunging into her. When he entered, she grasped his sides with her rear legs to bring him closer. She felt his throbbing member pushing further inside. Belle enjoyed the way her body surrounded him with her warmth, and the heat he brought to her. He began to pump in and out of her, and she noticed a light sheen of sweat breaking on his skin. Belle brought her nose up to his chest, and inhaled his scent deeply before licking one of his nipples.

William laughed at the touch, but kept his rhythm going. “Unnh..you feel so good. I love it when you do that.”

The fullness she felt within continued to bring her pleasure, and she was soon moving in time with William. She started rocking her haunches in time with his thrusts, and he let out a groan of pleasure. He gradually increased the speed of sex, and she could tell he wouldn't last much longer. She stroked the sides of his body with her forlegs, delighting in the sensation of her hair against his bare skin.

He propped himself up and rubbed one of her ears. The slight tickle of his touch added to the overall experience, and she felt the beginnings of another orgasm.

“Belle, ohh.”

She could feel him getting even larger, and she knew it wouldn't be long before he came. “Keep going, evil man,” Belle encouraged breathlessly.

“Belle, oh, God, yes,” William cried out, and buried his face into her neck, biting just the way she liked.

She felt him release inside her, his hot fluid adding to hers to make everything enjoyably messy. He continued his thrusts throughout her screams of pleasure, determined to stay with her movements. The wave once again overtook her, and she let herself flow with the sensation.

“Ohh, yes, William, Yes!” Belle continued rocking her haunches and squeezed with her rear legs. “Yesss!”

As she came down from her high, William pulled out and lay facing her. He continued to nuzzle her face and brush her body with his fingers. She looked deep into his eyes and stroked his face with a hoof.

“I love you, William Bevan,” she affirmed.

William took her hoof and kissed it. Winking, he said, “I'm the luckiest man in Equestria”

“You're the only man in Equestria, as far as I know,” Belle chided. “You should be thankful somepony let you in on the harmony.”

“Aw, Belle, even if there were more men here, I'd still be the lucky one.” He showered her face with little kisses. “I love you.”

They held each other for a time, enjoying the afterglow. Finally, Belle looked at the alarm clock.

“Shoot! It's 7:15. Come on, let's go. Help me clean up.”

********

“There you are!” Glory called across the restaurant. “We just ordered some appetizers; they should be out soon.”

Glory was a unicorn. Her white coat and purple mane were similar to Rarity's, but Glory had a blue streak in her mane, and her cutie mark was a shooting star. The star always reminded William of the afternoon “The More You Know” commercials back home. He tried to explain it to her once, but she didn't really get the humor. Glory had a business in Ponyville as an enchanter and magician for ponies who couldn't do certain types of magic on their own. She also worked as an assistant party planner for Pinkie Pie, and always added a touch of class to Pinkie's rather random soirees.

“Thanks, Glory. Sorry we're late; something came up.” William was able to keep a straight face.

Belle surreptitiously stepped on William's foot, causing him to yelp. She smiled up at him and asked, “Are you OK, honey?”

“Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks, sugarcube.” He playfully swatted her butt as they took their seats.

Starshine greeted the couple with a quick hug and kiss. “Did y'all see the clouds today? We had to bring some in from the reservoir just to make it dark enough. There's gonna be another snowfall tonight. It should be another hoof or so; nothing too much. It's still early in the season”

While Blue Belle ordered their drinks, William thought back to the first time he met Starshine. He had just arrived at Ponyville station on the morning train from Canterlot. She was flying overhead, moving clouds around. When she saw him, she abandoned her cloud and flew down to say hello. Twilight wasn't at the train station yet, so he'd been on his own. Starshine was fascinated by his body; it appeared that nopony had told the town of their new resident. Her dark blue mane had a shock of gray running through one side. While she was young, ponies would say it was silver; only when she was older would they call it what it really was. She had a coat the color of clouds in shadow, and a white starburst cutie mark on her flank. Despite her name, and cutie mark, she was not a nocturnal pony.

“You alright there, sport?” Starshine broke him out of his reverie.

William came back to the present. “Oh, yeah, I'm fine. I've been feeling a little nostalgic lately. So what's new with the two of you? Any big plans for the holidays?”

The waiter was fast; he delivered their drinks and appetizer, and took the dinner orders with great skill. William ordered another drink and quickly caught up to Glory and Starshine. He remembered again that one of the great things about having no cars was that a pony...man...couldn't get arrested for Driving While Intoxicated. The cider in Equestria was very good.

“And so I'm just staying here.” Glory finished her story.

William nodded dutifully and looked at his mug. The cider was good, but he cursed the small size of the servings. Belle noticed his look, and placed a hoof on his thigh.

“It's OK, Belle,” William reassured her.

Belle shared their holiday plans. “We're going to Hoofington, to meet my family,” she became visibly tense, but continued. “My mom or sisters don't know everything about William yet, so that should be an adventure.” She sipped on her drink, and looked at Starshine.

“I'm sure they'll like him, Belle. I've never seen you happier than when the two of you are together. And it's not like he's a giant dragon or manticore or something totally weird. He speaks our language and eats mostly the same things as us.” Starshine could always be counted on to give positive thoughts.

Dinner came, and with it a glass of mead. William was feeling pretty loose now, and began to voice his thoughts more often. He was in a happy mood, and wanted to share it with the group.

“Blue Belle, have I every told you how much I love you?” He wasn't quite slurring his words, but the three mares knew that was only another drink or two away.

Belle laughed and pushed on his shoulder. “Yeah, handsome, you've told me a time or two. I love you, too.”

He wasn't quite done yet, though. He really loved her, and wanted everypony to know. “Girls, really, she is the most amazing mare in Equestria. Present company excluded, of course.” He was very considerate. “I don't know what I'd do without her. Probably be stuck in that old room with Noteworthy and his guitar. Heh...he was always writing something. This soup is really good.” He focused on his dinner for a few minutes.

Belle blushed slightly, but got sympathetic smiles from her friends.

“I'm going back to Cloudsdale to see family there,” Starshine continued the conversation. “A couple of cousins I've never met are coming in for the holiday. It'll be great to see them.”

They finished the main course, and the waiter brought a desert cart by.

“The special for tonight is lemon cake with a wonderful dandelion glaze. It's sweet, but not overly rich. Would you care for a piece?” the waiter asked.

Belle and Glory accepted the offer. Starshine asked for a coffee, and William ordered a cider for a nightcap. The waiter brought the orders and the check, and the ponies dug into desert.

“This cake is great. Have a bite, William,” Belle said, offering a forked morsel.

William bit into it, agreeing, “Oh, that is good.” He swallowed and kissed her on the cheek. “Thanks, my sweet flower.”

He finished his cider, and was about to order another. Belle stopped him before he placed the order, though.

“Honey, let's go home. I still have to write mom, remember?”

William nodded, and simply paid the waiter.

He stood up and said, “Ladies, thank you for coming to dinner. Belle and I have to take our leave, though. I bid you good night.” He bowed and then hugged them before leading Belle outside.

She walked close to him; both for the warmth of his presence and to keep him steady. “I'm proud of you, honey. You did really well tonight.”

William didn't respond immediately, but simply brushed a hand through her mane, paying attention to how her hair felt as it flowed through his fingers. She really was a beautiful pony. He wasn't always sure what she saw in him, but he loved her for it. He looked up at the moon; it appeared crystal clear in the cold sky. The air stung his nostrils as he inhaled through his nose, and he saw his breath escape in great clouds of steam as he exhaled from his mouth. He stopped walking, and knelt down in the thin snow so he could be at eye level with her. He looked straight into her eyes and paused.

“Belle...I...thank you. You really are the best person I've ever met.” He gripped her in a tight embrace, and said, “I love you so much.”

She reached up with and rubbed his back with a leg. “Hey, we're a team, remember? You're the best person I've met, too.” She pulled away from him and kissed him on the mouth. “Come on. It's cold out here. Let's get home and snuggle.”

William stood up and dusted the snow off his knees. “Race ya!” he cried out, and took off running.

Belle shouted, “Hey!” and chased after him, laughing the whole way. He might have a head start, but she was an earth pony, and there was no way she would let some two-legged human beat her.

The race back was fast, but Belle pulled ahead of him at the last stretch and tapped a hoof on the door first.

“I win!” she announced.

“Whew. You did. You and your freaky earth pony magic,” William conceded defeat. “That means I make the hot chocolate.”

Belle wrote her mother about holiday plans as she sipped her hot chocolate. It even had tiny marshmallows. After sealing the envelope and putting it by her things for the next day, she collected William from the couch and took him to bed for the promised snuggles.

“Good night, William.” She kissed him and rolled over to become the little spoon.

“Good night, Belle.” William embraced her, and cherished the feeling of her warm, furry body.

It wasn't long before she felt his breathing change to that of sleep. As she lay in his embrace, she considered their life together thus far. He supported her goals as she supported his, and he made her want to be a better mare. To say everything was perfect would not be true, but he paid more attention to her than most stallions paid to mares. He told her that's how it was done in Earth. Their female to male ratio was mostly equal, so men had to work a little harder than the stallions did here. Total bliss or not, she was very glad they had met. She rubbed a hoof along his arm, and drifted off to her dreams.
